Correct, you need an Ultra and the $200-300 flash ROM.  As far as sample CDs, you can probably buy them from E-Mu.  Note, however, that most of the interesting parts of the sounds of the ROMplers comes from the presets, not the samples.  The filters, patchcords, modulation, etc makes the box sound the way it does.


You should check out the ProteusX or EmulatorX soft-synths and sample libraries - they'll have the preset goodness that the modules have.

PS. you weren't looking for a "warez" sample CD, were you...

IIRC, 
only 
the 
"ultra" 
series 
samplers 
can 
burn 
the 
blank 
ROMs.

on 
a 
similar 
topic, 
does 
anyone 
know 
where 
i 
can 
find 
"sample 
CDs" 
of 
the 
emu 
ROMs? 
i'm 
not 
interested 
in 
getting 
into 
a 
bidding 
war 
on 
ebay 
to 
fill 
xl-7 
with 
the 
classic 
ROMs 
when, 
in 
theory, 
i 
should 
be 
able 
to 
download 
and 
burn 
all 
of 
them 
for 
almost 
free. 
sure, 
i 
wouldn't 
be 
able 
to 
use 
them 
in 
my 
xl7, 
but 
i 
could 
use 
them 
in 
my 
a4000.
